Ah, Mr. Freeze. I'm still not sure how I feel about you, my glass-domed chum, after that complete butchering you underwent in 1997's Batman & Robin at the hands of the future governor of California. While the Batman animated movie Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero did much to improve your reputation in my eyes, every time I see you I cannot help but imagine you violently urging your henchmen to sing along to a Christmas special in that horrible accent. "Kill da heroes!" Please.
Perhaps your appearance in Lego Batman will finally help me finally move on. While you do lose some of the tragic villain mystique you've built up with the whole frozen wife storyline, you might manage to make it up in sheer Lego adorability. Fingers crossed!

Informal gathering for people with MS and friends/family members

'But you look so good'…. MS & Me blogger Niall McGahon shares his thoughts and reaction on hearing this compliment. "But you look so good…." For some, this expression can be one of the most frustrating things to hear when you have MS. For me, it is simply someone paying me a compliment and my immediate reply is "Thanks a million…" Personally, the most frustrating aspect of having MS - is having this progressive illness. No two days are the same nor do they have any predictability. This is where I have tried to take back control of my life and put a bit of manners on MS! Now this was by no means an instantaneous migration and did not happen overnight. It was and still is difficult to make such major lifestyle changes and I am continuously learning each and every day. Many times, of course it does get in the way, or rather my right leg gets in the way of my left leg. Suddenly the footpath and I are about to become very close friends! But like all things you learn to live with and give yourself the best possible chance of limiting the relapses through exercise, major dietary change, meditation and focusing on what I can do and not on what I may or may not be able to do in the future. I follow the OMS program for all of this. The great sports phycologist, Dr Bob Rotella has a simple concept used for golf of "staying in the present". These golfers play their next shot until they run out of holes and then add up their score. I have taken this from my golf and tried to apply it to my illness, simply take each day as it comes and deal with that day. The rest of the days are, for the most part outside of my control. Since being diagnosed with MS in 2014 and having many experiences since, I have become acutely aware of how well I am in the grand scheme of human health. I have been in hospital for various treatments and have seen people who have much harder crosses to bear than me. So as a result, I am trying to make myself more aware of when someone is paying me a compliment. I have no idea what that person is going through, yet they have taken the time to think about me and what I am going through by paying me a compliment. The correct thing to do is simply say thank you. If you can add to peoples' knowledge of MS along the way through conversation, then brilliant. The greater the understanding of what a person with MS goes through daily, the better. You may be in pain, you may be heavily fatigued, and you may not be in a very good emotional place. What I have learnt over the last 4 years is that the person saying that you look good could be in the very same place but for a totally different reason, so saying thank you is sometimes best for all.
New treatment option for relapsing remitting MS The National Centre for Pharmacoeconomics in Ireland (NCPE) announces positive recommendation for reimbursement for MAVENCLAD (Cladribine tablets). MS Ireland believes people with MS should have access to all and any appropriate and licensed treatments that would improve or assist in the management of their condition. The MS community is very much looking forward to having access to this treatment option. Read MS Ireland's briefing document on the process of licensing and reimbursement of new medications.
'Don't let MS stop you from finding your happily ever after'… This week Ciara O Meara reflects on dating and disclosing her MS when she finally found the one! Dating is a pure and utter minefield! Your preparation for the field is diligent and precise. You approach the field with care and caution, as you have no idea where potential disasters lie. The field itself is exciting; it's unpredictable and it's nerve wrecking. And your exit from the field can be a calamity or pure serendipity. MS just drops a few unexpected mines into the field of mayhem! MS never impacted on my dating life and it certainly didn't do anything to lessen the amount of frogs that reared their heads along the way! When I was diagnosed I was in a relationship, but that ship was already sinking long before MS was mentioned. It was sinking at such a rapid rate that I never told him of my diagnosis- what was the point? It wasn't going to make any difference to our relationship and I didn't want anyone hanging around out of guilt or fear. Plus, I was excited at the thought of single Ciara returning to the minefield of dating! I didn't have the Tinder experience when I was single. It was late bars, nightclubs or a friend of a friend. I didn't have the 'liathróidí' to approach anyone without an alcoholic beverage in hand. Give me some Pinto Grigio and I had balls of steel. There were once off kisses, numbers swapped, a regretful one-night stand, a date, maybe two, even three but MS was never mentioned and it never entered my mind. I had no visible symptoms of my MS and there was no indication that anything was wrong. I was young, free and single and playing the field and MS had no reason to be involved. Like I said, MS never impacted on my dating life, not until I fell in love that is. Ladies night out in a dodgy nightclub at home at Christmas- it was only meant to be one of those random drunken kisses. Numbers were exchanged, dates arranged and by month four we were 'Facebook Official' and I was falling and falling hard. I had told Dave I loved him long before MS was mentioned. Maybe it was fear, maybe worry, pity or embarrassment that stopped me every time from telling him. I thought if I told him that he would feel morally obliged to stay in the situation rather than wanting to be in a relationship. There were only so many excuses I could make for the perfectly circular bruises on my tummy and thighs from the Rebif. I wanted this relationship to develop and to do that I had to be honest about the uncertainty and unpredictability that this disease brings with it. When I told him he stared blankly for a few minutes, my heart rate increasing by the second. He looked at me, held my hand and said 'Ciara, I fell in love with you and now that I know you have MS, I will love you even more'. I had made MS out to be bigger than what we had when in fact our journey together with MS would make us stronger. Six years on and a house together is testament to that. He's there on the bad days, he's there on the good days and he's there to support me in everything I do. Everyone's someone is waiting for them. Don't ever let MS stop you from finding your happily ever after. Brace the minefield with open arms and kiss all the frogs that hop in your way- you never know which one is the right one!

This week Robert Joyce discusses the good days and the bad days. Chronic illness invades every part of our lives and it can be so easy to fall into a trap of grieving for what used to be. Snowflake. I never thought that I would class myself as part of this new category. It is a term that is used to describe the new generation, signifying that everyone is different. Unique. Special. Beautiful. Multiple Sclerosis has so many variations of how it affects the people that have it; MS can definitely be called a snowflake disease. In the last four years, my health has changed. My Multiple Sclerosis raised its head, announcing its return by adding extra weight to my right leg and placing gloves on my hands that contain thousands of pins and needles. It woke up because of a minor car accident that shook this beast from its slumber. Accompanied by a headache that since then has never abated. Chronic illness can and does, invade every part of your life. Work suffers, testing your relations with loved ones and your mental state can transform from happy to maudlin in an instant. Your mind brings up memories of days when you could walk for hours, or become immersed in learning something new. Now, these are not possible. Living with longing for the past only leads to despair. I have travelled this journey and understand how easy it is to fall into this cauldron of lost abilities. My toe has been scalded many times as I started to slide into this boiling broth. Now I know how this feels and have found a way of lifting myself away from this bubbling pot. I've placed my damaged body back on a path with the sun warming my back by focusing on my abilities, on the friendships made while walking this road. Focusing on the opportunities that I have, the abilities that I learned, and newfound friendships, has created vital, renewing times for me. Lost mobility has put me in front of my laptop and now I write. Seeing that the creativity that I need to feel fulfilled can be met by using these keys, I now share my stories to an audience that spans the world. Singapore, Peru, USA and even Cork are all places that my words have been read. My eyes once again sparkle with excitement as I wonder what new post I shall write. I share my story with the world and I know it is listening. In this uncertain future that I have as a result of my medical condition, I know that those dark, cauldron days will return. However, those days are a stark contrast to the days filled with happiness and gratitude for the new abilities that I have learned. I am secure in my belief that "the dark days make the bright days brighter". Discover more from Robert Joyce on https://a30minutelife.com/

Think local first!
Before you hit that "send" key on your computer this holiday season, please consider shopping locally.
Your dollars spent locally benefit the entire community, not just the individual business. Statistics show that for every dollar spent in a local business, 70 cents is re-circulated within that community.
Businesses in Mammoth need the support of tourists and residents alike.
I urge you to get behind this idea; shop locally this holiday season and encourage your friends to do the same.

Do-not-track setting is no guarantee
Microsoft has enjoyed months of great press for its promise to make Do Not Track the default setting on its forthcoming iteration of Internet Explorer, but it has left out one important detail: Users will still be tracked.
That also goes for users of Chrome, whose parent Google announced last week to fanfare — and praise from Federal Trade Commission Chairman Jon Leibowitz — that it will provide a prominent DNT privacy setting option as well. Users of Mozilla's Firefox, too, aren't getting what they think when they click on the existing option not to be tracked.
Story Continued Below
The reason: There's nothing to force ad networks to honor it, as the browser companies well know.
"It's an option that doesn't do anything," said former FTC Chief Privacy Officer Marc Groman, now executive director of the Network Advertising Initiative, a trade group. "That totally provides users with a false sense of security."
Leibowitz has thrown his weight behind Do Not Track as a way to boost Internet privacy. Lawmakers have included the concept in some privacy bills, but the measures haven't been enacted. Congress has left it up to the FTC, which called on industry to develop the system in its March privacy report.
None of the browser companies deny that their current Do Not Track arrangements are meaningless, nor would they explain why they tout them. Leibowitz nonetheless extolled Microsoft and Google for their DNT options.
"Google is to be commended for joining the other major browsers in endorsing 'Do Not Track,'" Leibowitz said on Sept. 18 after the search company announced a forthcoming Chrome update that will give users a DNT option. "That's a major victory for consumers who want and deserve choice about where their personal information is going."
The trouble is, even if people select those DNT choices, their computers will nonetheless continue to transmit the same data on what sites they visit and advertisers will still be able to target them based on that information.

Cisco stabilizes switching and routing in Q2
Raises dividend, remains cautious
Networking - and some would say data center bellwether - Cisco Systems turned in a better-than-expected fiscal Q2 ended in January, with revenues up 10.8 per cent to $11.53bn and net income up a very good 43.5 per cent to $2.18bn.
"We are moving ahead of our competitors and our industry peers," proclaimed Cisco CEO John Chambers in a call with Wall Street analysts after the market closed. "We are in the sweet spot of where our customers are focusing on innovation," Chambers explained, adding that the company was "getting a higher share of IT spend than our competitors."
This is a remarkable turnaround from the Cisco of late 2010 and early 2011, which was unfocused, being picked apart by switching and routing competitors, and suffering from having alienated its big server partners by getting into the server racket itself with its Unified Computing System blade and rack servers.
Cisco restructured, got back to basics, refreshed its switching and routing products, and competed to win deals and cut costs. Chambers said on the call that Cisco's goal for its restructuring was to eliminate $1bn in expenses on an annualized basis, and that it had accomplished this a quarter ahead of schedule. This is one of the reasons why Cisco's profits rebounded so much in fiscal Q2 despite the fact that gross margins are down a bit, mostly thanks to very aggressive competition in Asia and product mix.
In Q2, Cisco's product sales were up 10.7 per cent, to $9.12bn, while its services revenues rose 11 per cent in tandem to $2.41bn. Switching products accounted for $3.61bn in sales, up 8 per cent, and Chambers said that gross margins were back to levels in the switching business that the company enjoyed two years ago.
Part of the problem is that the Nexus converged Ethernet switches, which carry both server and storage traffic, initially had much lower margins and much more functionality and higher port counts. Cisco had to sell a lot more Nexus gear to make the revenues, and the product was more expensive to make and therefore less profitable. But, Cisco has been working on that, and Chambers cheerfully said that the gross margins on Nexus gear were up 8 per cent in the quarter.
On the routing front, revenues rose by 8 per cent, to $2.08bn, with high-end routers growing 11 per cent and low-end and midrange routers rising only 6 per cent. Chambers said that Cisco continued to take market share in the routing space, and reminded everyone that "our major competitor" – that means you, Juniper Networks – just turned in a tough quarter where routing sales were down. Juniper did have a killer quarter in switching, but Chambers didn't mention that.
Cisco's data center business, which includes its UCS servers and a few other items, had $333m in revenues in the quarter, up 88 per cent, and Chambers said that the UCS products were up 91 per cent year-on-year and were clipping along at a $1bn annualized revenue run rate.
If you add in the Nexus 2000 and 5000 switches, which are often sold alongside UCS servers (and presumably networking other vendors' server iron), Chambers said this business more than doubled from a year ago and was running at a $2.5bn annual run rate. Cisco added 1,768 new UCS customers in the second fiscal quarter, bringing the total customer base up to unique 10,763 companies.
The company's collaboration products raked in $1.05bn in sales (up 10 per cent) and its service provider video products brought in $1.02bn (up 23 per cent). Wireless products accounted for $418m (up 25 per cent), while security products brought in $334m (up 24 per cent). Other products (including discontinued Flip phones and other things) made up the remaining $287m and plummeted 31 per cent.
Sales at Cisco were lumpy across the global regions and countries where it operates, as is the case with other IT suppliers these days. The Americas region had 5 per cent growth, and EMEA even turned in 7 per cent growth. Canada helped bring up the Americas average with a 29 per cent spike in Q2, and Japan did the same in Asia with a mimicking 29 per cent rise. The Asia/Pacific-Japan-China region had 14 per cent sales growth overall for the quarter, with China up 13 per cent and India, which is having economic issues at the moment, falling 13 per cent. Sales in the United Kingdom rose 13 per cent, while Germany had a 2 per cent decline and France had a 3 per cent decline year-on-year.
Across industry segments, the public sector continued to be a problem for Cisco as it has been for other IT players, with sales off 1 per cent. Cisco's service provider biz was up 12 per cent, and sales to large enterprises rose 7 per cent. Ditto for other commercial clients, who wrote checks worth 7 per cent more to Cisco in the quarter.
Cisco ended the quarter with $46.74bn in cash and equivalents and said about $5bn of that was in its US coffers with the rest of it overseas. Chambers said that he believes that the tax rate on repatriated money should be on the order of "zero to 2 per cent" and reckoned that however was President of the United States next would see the wisdom of this and let Cisco bring that $41.7bn in expat cash on home.
Cisco paid out $322m in dividends in the quarter, and today raised that dividend going forward by 33 per cent to 8 cents per share. At this rate, dividends will eat about $1.7bn in cash a year.
In terms of Cisco doing any big acquisitions with that cash, forget it. "You partner big to big, and you acquire big to small," Chambers admonished, adding that the company liked to acquire firms with around 100 engineers with good products that need a little extra oomph to get traction in the market and that flesh out the Cisco portfolio. Just like Oracle and IBM.
Looking ahead, Cisco said that it expects for revenues in the third fiscal quarter ending in April to rise somewhere between 5 and 7 per cent year-on-year, which is essentially flat sequentially. Cisco expects non-GAAP earnings per share to be between 45 and 47 cents. GAAP EPS will knock these numbers down by between 7 and 10 cents. ®

Friends of the High Line's office recently got a new addition: a 9 foot-by-18 foot aerial High Line wall map in our reception area. The map shows the High Line's design in context: the entire line is visible as it moves north from the West Village, through Chelsea, to the West Side Rail Yards.
The unusual view from above reveals the complex relationship between the High Line and its neighborhood. You can see the surrounding built environment as a series of blocks, streets, and related and unrelated structures, seemingly stitched together by the common thread of the High Line. You can see where the line literally passes through buildings, which familiar neighborhood landmarks it nears and touches, and how it parallels the Hudson River. Here at our office, we can't stop looking at it.

The Baltimore Ravens buried a month's worth of iffy performances Sunday with a decisive 33-14 win over the New York Giants.
Relive every game this season online and on-demand with enhanced viewing features, including the "All-22" coaches film. Get NFL Game Rewind.
The Ravens escaped the game without any major injuries, but there was concern after wide receiver Anquan Boldin departed in the third quarter with shoulder soreness. Boldin was hurt while making a 16-yard, first-down grab, but Ravens coach John Harbaugh said Monday it's not a serious setback.
"Anquan has a shoulder bruise," Harbaugh told the Ravens' official website. "We'll see how that develops during the course of the week."
The intense race for the playoffs is in full gear. Check out the latest situation in the postseason chase. More ...
Boldin has lost some of his speed, but he played a larger-than-usual role against the Giants, hauling in seven catches for 93 yards. He's closing in on another 1,000-yard campaign -- he has done that five times in his 10-year NFL career -- and the Ravens can't afford to lose him for long.
The Ravens (10-5) locked up at least the No. 4 seed in the playoffs by winning the AFC North on Sunday and now progress toward a Week 17 meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals (9-6).

Traffic fatalities have jumped 18 percent this year in Volusia County, with 100 people killed on the roadways as of Friday, while traffic deaths have dropped 41 percent in Flagler County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Traffic fatalities have jumped 18 percent this year in Volusia County, with 100 people killed on the roadways as of Friday, while traffic deaths have dropped 41 percent in Flagler County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Capt. Nancy Rasmussen, chief of public affairs for FHP, said she was surprised by the increase from 85 to 100 deaths in Volusia, especially because the county saw the second-largest decrease among Florida's 67 counties from 2010 to 2011.
Rasmussen consulted with local FHP official Maj. Cynthia Williams, a spokeswoman for the district that includes Volusia, and attributed the high number of deaths to motorcycle crashes and crashes involving pedestrians. Most involved a vehicle leaving the roadway.
"About 70 percent or so (of the fatal crashes) have been motorcycle and pedestrian crashes, and there's no specific area where these crashes are happening," Rasmussen said. "We have started motorcycle safety classes, and we're going to do more enforcement of the motorcycle laws and pedestrian laws."
In Flagler County, 13 people have been killed in fatal crashes so far this year, a 41 percent decrease from 2011's 23 traffic deaths.
This year, most of Flagler's fatal crashes occurred when a vehicle was entering or leaving a highway, but second most common were rear-end and rollover crashes and wrecks where the vehicle left the roadway.
Sgt. Dylan Bryan, FHP spokesman for the district that includes Flagler, said many of Flagler's fatalities in 2011 were on U.S. 1 and Interstate 95, but this year the majority were in rural areas.
He said he would like to attribute the drop in traffic deaths to increased enforcement by FHP. "Typically where the trends are occurring is where we'll allocate our resources," Bryan said.
Behind the statistics are people like 54-year-old Wilfred Vera whose son Brandon Vera was killed in February when he was hit by a car in Orange City while walking to school. He was 16.
Wilfred Vera recently moved from Orange City to Deltona as a means of escaping the painful memories of living in the same house that he shared with his son and driving down the street where his son was killed.
"It was really hard driving down that block every day, every day," Wilfred Vera said.
He said he thought moving would help, but the pain of Brandon's loss is constant.
Since Brandon's death, Volusia County has made changes to improve pedestrian safety, especially for kids who walk or ride to school.
"Now, we have signs everywhere," Wilfred Vera said. "Now, people that don't live there are aware that kids actually cross in the morning when it's still dark."
The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles has recorded 1,864 traffic deaths for 2012, not including December's numbers, a decrease of about 22 percent.
Brandon's father believes safety improvements are the key.
"I don't believe his death was in vain completely because some changes were made, but they were made kind of late," said Wilfred Vera. "If that would have all been in place before my son was killed, he might not have been killed."

Certain PMs fear conflict and agree to every demand that internal clients or senior management make. These PMs might have a sales background. As a result, they are used to saying "yes."
Now, these PMs typically mean well and certainly do not intentionally try to sabotage projects. Often, yes-men simply want their clients to be satisfied and provide future references. But by failing to confront those with wildly different expectations, yes-men implicitly make promises and commitments that endanger entire projects.
The Micromanager
Much like yes-men, micromanagers often mean well and merely want to understand each step in a process or the nature of a complex issue. However, on a project, the PM is not supposed to be the product, application or technical expert. During crunch time, consultants often cannot explain each facet of a complex issue to anyone, much less a newbie, regardless of the latter's benevolent intentions.
[ Bone up on the pros and cons of a project management office. Read Project Management Offices: A Waste Of Money? ]
Micromanagers need to let experienced consultants do their jobs. Depending on the timing, a PM might have to live with a high-level explanation of an issue. Should the micromanager need more detail, she should bring consultants to steering committee meetings or have them write status reports providing more specifics.
PMs need to let everyone else breathe; that is, get the actual work done. Employees and consultants can't be effective if they spend most of their time briefing PMs on the status of each issue. This is especially true as projects reach critical points.
The Procrastinator
PMs who routinely fail to deliver are the worst of the bunch. At a minimum, they cause organizations to miss project deadlines. Procrastinators put both employees and consultants in untenable positions. Speaking from a consultant's perspective, it's a no-win situation. The procrastinator often ducks clients and does not deliver promised results such as updated project plans, documentation or status updates. In such cases, people are likely to lose faith in the consulting firm and its individual consultants, whether the latter are contributing to the delays or not. The best PMs know when to use each tool in their kits.

Dave's Rating:
It's dark out there.
Filmmaker Derek Cianfrance's (Blue Valentine) latest is beautiful to look at. Long, skillful tracking shots, impeccably composed cinematography from Sean Bobbitt (Shame, Hunger, United 93) and a mournful, overcast tone throughout. It's art house-pretty, got a lot on its mind and runs a sprawling 150 minutes, going for big ideas about generational dysfunction and genetics-based behavioral doom, all that Sins of the Fathers stuff. Cianfrance even tips his thematic hand in the opening sequence when Ryan Gosling covers up his cruddy-tattoo-afflicted torso with a cruddy T-shirt and goes to his cruddy job, one where he daredevil-rides a motorcycle in a dangerously small globe-shaped cage alongside two other cyclists, narrowly missing one another as they speed round and round, going nowhere. You'd be forgiven for saying, "Point taken!" right then and there as you get up to leave.
Symbolism gives way to big plotting, though, and before long the sad saga of fathers and sons and the way they ruin one another is in motion, shifting from character to character and decade to decade, promising way more than it can ever hope to deliver in what suddenly seems like a too-short two-and-half-hours. Gosling's daredevil turns to bank robbery to support the baby he didn't know he fathered with Mendes. And when Cooper foils the novice criminal's last heist, the story shifts to him and his own descent into some bad behavior (aided by the always creepy, always menacing Ray Liotta), compromises for the sake of his career that result in an offscreen divorce and a ruined son (Emory Cohen). So yes, that cage only locks from the outside; if you're in it you'd better keep riding. Meanwhile, coincidences -- the kind that routinely take place in heavy message films like this -- conspire to keep the men's offspring (Dane DeHaan plays Gosling's grown-up kid) doing just that, well into the future.
And I promise this is the last time I'll reference Halle Berry's frumpy mom-wig in The Call. But it's relevant again, almost trending now, thanks to this film's three-pronged attack of movie star dishevelment: Gosling's terrible bleach-blondness and drunkishly applied ink, Cooper's puffy face, too-close shave and clumsy, jug-ear-accentuating cop haircut, and Mendes' dark undereye circles. It's the curse of pretty actors who also want to do grittier, more downbeat work that their beautiful mugs and rockin' bods precede them. It's a hump they -- and we -- have to get over if we're going to do more than genuflect. They mean well when they go in for this kind of disguise, but in the long run it also becomes its own distraction. The answer? Weirdly enough, it involves Cianfrance opening the film with a close-up of Gosling's sick abs. He knows that he could have cast a team of non-professionals in the manner of Bresson or Beasts of the Southern Wild, also knows that it would have next to no audience without recognizable names on the poster, realizes that it's a no-win and then thrusts that Hey Girl washboard in your face anyway as if to say, "Yes, I know, but let's just move on."
Cianfrance has also already shown in Blue Valentine that he's very familiar with how to work past that distraction (it starred Gosling and an Oscar-nominated Michelle Williams, after all) while pushing specific narrative details into his formal concerns and creating indelible images, characters and moods. But this is not that kind of film. Characters sacrifice the future of their children on the altar of their own never-quite-explained ambitions and the film sacrifices that intimate detail for the sake of a never-quite-explained circle of life and death.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office received a call late on Sunday, Sept. 16, indicating there was a large snake near the roadway on Highway 365 by the entrance to Gator Country. Upon arrival, deputies and owner of Gator Country, Gary Saurage, identified the snake as Banana, the 16-foot albino Burmese python reported missing April 30, 2012. Gary Saurage said, "She appears to be in good condition." He's glad to have her back, he added.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.
